OUR WORK

Chasing Ice is the story of one man’s mission to change the tide of history by gathering undeniable evidence of our changing planet. The film captures the work of James Balog as he creates his latest project: The Extreme Ice Survey. Balog deployed revolutionary time-lapse cameras across the brutal Arctic to capture a multi-year record of the world’s changing glaciers. These hauntingly beautiful videos compress years into seconds and reveal ancient mountains of ice in motion as they disappear at a breathtaking rate. You can learn more about the film at our Chasing Ice website.

We have high-quality videos from footage captured during the filming of Chasing Ice available at the Getty Images website.

Jeff Orlowski is proud to be a Producer on the 2015 feature film Frame By Frame, premiering at SXSW. The story follows four Afghan photojournalists as they fight to reclaim their country’s identity after it has been stripped away by decades of war and an oppressive Taliban regime.

With the same adventurous spirit and curiosity that inspired Emmy Award-Winning Chasing Ice, Director Jeff Orlowski and the film team train their lens on the world’s oceans on a journey to reveal a mysterious phenomenon happening beneath the surface.

The team follows Richard Vevers, a former ad man, who left his advertising career to become an underwater photographer. Captivated by the magic of the reefs, he sets out to reveal the oceans to the world. He meets with the world’s most brilliant coral scientists, and learns of a horrific event unfolding: an underwater heatwave is killing corals around the planet. With young scientist and self-proclaimed “coral nerd” Zackery Rago, the film team ventures to remote regions of the planet, racing the clock and battling the unpredictable nature of the ocean to document this beautiful yet haunting phenomenon.

Chasing Coral was shot over three years, with expeditions to coral reefs around the world. The imagery is an ominous warning of the planet’s future along the current course; at the same time, it is a celebration of the most biodiverse ecosystem on the planet.
